“ So I have been considering coming here for a long time but it always looks packed and I never wanted to wait. Today, I had the day off, so I hoped in. The inside is much bigger than I thought. Maybe I shouldn't have waited so long. They have all the basic breakfast stuff. I had the French toast, and it was great, nice , and fluffy. Service was super friendly, just what I'd expect at a dinner Will definitely be back ”
“ Jamie was our waitress. She was super friendly and helpful. Breakfast specials that was Kabasa served over country potatoes and two over easy eggs and toast. For 10. Taste was there. It had peppers and onions in there as well. Which really complimented everything else. Basically it was delicious. My stomach is happy once again. Gypsy smiles got the lunch special which was a pork steak. Served with vegetables and mashed potatoes. It looked great. Will return. ”
“ This is a hidden gem restaurant in Olathe . We had the Smothered Chicken and Chicken Fried Steak with pepsi and sweet tea. The chicken was fresh and country gravy was all over the steak and mashed potato , may be thats the usual but it tasted good to me . My husband had the smothered chicken he said it was filled with flavours a dash of citrus with creamy mushroom along with the grilled chicken. The entire place have car decoration and it was bursting with happy families .I loved the place and would go again. ”
“ Amazing real old diner atmosphere, great service, our waitress never stopped bringing coffee - thank you! And the pancakes were so incredibly delicious biscuits were good and fluffy, country gravy I prefer a little more spice to it. But wow loved the pancakes! Still awesome!
